They can go to the nucleic acid testing station for sampling only when the test result is negative. If the test result is positive, in addition to making a declaration in the Macau Health Code , regardless of whether there is a fever, respiratory symptom or other discomfort, an ambulance should be called as soon as possible (Tel: 119, 120 or 2857 2222). The person concerned and his/her housemates have to stay at home and wait patiently for the ambulance arranged by the authorities to send them to the quarantine site. The authorities will make unified arrangements for nucleic acid testing for them.
